Marton Under-10s are looking forward to stepping up to playing 11-a-side games next season after completing a highly successful season in the Teesside Junior Football Alliance.

They romped to the North Riding Division One championship with a marvellous record of 16 wins and a draw from their 18 fixtures, scoring 87 goals while conceding only eight.

They went on to win the NR Under-10 Cup Final when they defeated a battling Kader side 3-0 thanks to two goals from Nathan Steele and a 30-yard chip over the keeper from Jack Roper.

The boys then won the Sportstours Haggerston Castle Cup when they went to Berwick without a substitute yet won all nine games played, conceding only one goal. They were presented with the trophy by Newcastle legend Malcolm Macdonald.
